Apple Crop Prospects Vary Across Key Growing Regions
The Agricultural Marketing Service reports June outlooks for major apple varieties across states. Bloom and set vary by area with heavy New York bloom yet uneven fruit set, generally favorable northern regions, light Baldwin prospects in some states, weather during blossom affecting pollination, and mixed results for varieties like McIntosh, Stayman, Rome Beauty, and Northern Spy. Some areas face spring freezes, hail damage, or above average conditions, notably in the south central U.S. and Delta Colorado, while the Pacific Northwest shows strong outlook for Newtowns in Hood River Valley.
